What is graduating?

The exact definition of Graduation is catch 22. Just a giant clusterfuck of emotions in which you don't know whether to be happy or sad. Nervous, or excited. Ugh. Graduation sucks.

Example: "I cried so much at my graduation, I was scared to be leaving behind everything I'd ever known for 12 years of my life. But at the same time, excited to be starting something new and adventurous."

Graduating - what is it?

This is the day you leave high school with a diploma, and many gaping wounds and/or emotional pain/catharsis.

Wow, Tom! Congratulations on graduating from high school, isn't that a big relief?

Tom: Well, this wound from AP Chemistry will never go away, and I feel like crying like a little girl, knowing I don't have to put up with those fucking losers and that history teacher for the rest of my life *cries*

Graduation

Then comes college, when you become a freshman all over again, CONGRATS!

Graduating - what does it mean?

The 1967 classic starring Dustin Hoffman, Anne Bancroft, and Katherine Ross. The Graduate is about a recent college graduate (Hoffman) who is seduced by the wife (Bancroft) of his father's business partner, then ends up falling in love with her daughter (Ross). Anne Bancroft's character became one of the most famous characters in movie history, Mrs. Robinson. The popular song "Mrs. Robinson" by Simon and Garfunkel was used in the movie.

It was based on a book by Charles Webb with the same title written in 1963.

The Graduate is one of the best films that came out of the 60's.

Mrs. Robinson, you're trying to seduce me. Aren't you?

And here's to you Mrs. Robinson, Jesus loves you more than you will know.

Graduating - meaning

The best/worst thing for a high-schooler to experience before they take their leap into the real world. A last chance for friends/crushes/acquaintances/etc. to get together for the last time, and, hopefully, get phone numbers/e-mail addresses/Myspaces to talk to each other after they all leave high school.

At graduation, I tried to kiss my than girlfriend, she moved away from the kiss, and told me that she was cheating on me someone else. She than proceeded to graduate while my dad took a picture of us standing together with our diploma covers. Needless to say, my graduation sucked ass. Also, don't throw your caps when you graduate. I did, and got back one without a graduating class pin.

Graduating - slang

This is it. You’ve made it. You survived high school. And now (hopefully) you’ll go on to do better and brighter things in life. You either go to college, the military, or just simply work at one of your parents jobs. Either way. What ever you end up doing you’ll either love it or hate it. Good luck.

Well after 4 long years we finally made it... graduation

Graduating

The day you realize you just spent 13 years of your life to walk across a stage wearing a funny looking hat to get a piece of paper.

What!?! I worked the equivilent of a full time job for 13 years for a piece of paper that basically means I didn't fall asleep in class too much! There goes 13 years of my life that i'll never get back. What's the point of graduation anyway?

Graduating

Can be either the greatest moment or the saddest. I thought it would be the greatest but looking back I would give up everything just for one day back in school. Crushes, unfairness, homework, love, friends, idiot teachers, recess, lunch, all that stuff. I miss it all. I find it strange to be looking back right now on this. But I guess the saying they say is true. "You never knew how much fun being a kid really was until your older."

I miss school. There said it.
